Dear Author,This man is his muse.

My only qualifications are HEA & more story over sex. Everything else is up to you.

Photo Description: An art studio. A naked, toned, hairless young man appears to sit on the edge of an old wooden easel, his left arm grasping it behind him. His body faces left; his expressionless face is turned slightly left, toward the viewer. On a worktable stands an old Grecian-looking statue.

This story was written as a part of the M/M Romance Group's "Hot Summer Days" event. Group members were asked to write a story prompt inspired by a photo of their choice. Authors of the group selected a photo and prompt that spoke to them and wrote a short story.

Read information about the author

BRYL R. TYNE is a wrangler by nature and a writer by choice. Balancing as many pronouns as hats, somewhere between the evil day job, editing, and helping a benevolent Sugar Daddy raise the last of seven kids, Bryl writes. Homoerotic romance is a favorite, but many of Bryl’s stories cross genres. Comedy, Fantasy, Mystery, Sci-fi, even Westerns, Bryl writes them all.
